After race at Clonmel Thu, 2nd Dec, 2021 (1st)  He had a good run the last day but the trip suited him today and we probably rode him more forcefully other days. Listowel was actually good ground and he didn't see it out on the day (when fifth). He always promised to be good and he jumped well and James gave him a perfect ride. The plan is to fiddle away with him and go for a rated novice hurdle. W J Burke

After race at Galway Sat, 24th Oct, 2020 (1st)  I didn't know what to expect out of him to be honest as I had nothing done with him on grass and never had him away anywhere. He is a fair beast because he was very green. He was desperate green and he (Tom Feeney) said he had to let him go a bit because he didn't know what was going on. Any horse that'll run to the line here isn't a bad one. He has plenty of size, is a very honest horse but I didn't know what to expect today. That's the owner's (William MacDonald) second bumper winner here recently and he has been lucky for me. In fairness he is a long time sitting on these horses since they were yearlings, so it is great to get winners for him as he is a great owner. W J Burke
